WHAT YOU WILL LEARNThe online Certificate in Health, Safety & Environmental Processes (CHSEP) program is the product of extensive collaboration with professionals in the workplace. It is unique among other OHS programs in that its focus is on the essential process skills required to succeed as an OHS practitioner in your jurisdiction, rather than just focusing on the technical aspects of the field. CHSEP participants will develop the ability to identify, prioritize and manage workplace risks, thereby making a significant contribution to their organization’s goals.

The range of skills and knowledge provided in the online CHSEP program are effectively equipping today’s OHS practitioners with the necessary and relevant competencies they require.

Through the Certificate or Applied Certificate, you will be prepared for a leadership role by enhancing your critical thinking and developing advanced processing skills.

Many of our graduates have successfully passed the Board of Canadian Registered Safety Professionals (BCRSP) exam based on their learning from this program and use of the BCRSP Study Guide.

This is an online program with continuous intake, meaning you can begin your studies at any time and work at your own pace.
